Our chapter was contacted by In2Books, an online mentoring program to help
elementary school children learn to love reading. They are looking for
people interested in being pen pals with 3rd-5th graders online. Volunteers
read the same 5 books as the kids and talk about them via online letters,
helping kids get more out of their reading and their learning. The program
runs Sept-May and you write letters on your own time.
I explained to them that we do more one-time group projects, but let them
know that I would pass on the information. If this is something that
interests you as an individual service opportunity, check it out at
